IT TO CLEAN UNDER THE UNIT,AND WHEN I DID EVERYTHING IN THE FRIG IS NOW FREEZING. I TALKED TO REPAIR MEN IN MY AREA AND SO FAR I HAVE REPLACED THE DEFROST THERMISTOR DID NOT FIX PROBLEM REPLACED FREEZER THERMOSTAT DID NOT FIX PROBLEM. THE DEFROST COIL OHMS OUT IT IS OK.ON LINE THIS MORNING I SEEN ANOTHER THERMOSTAT IN THE FRIG COMPARTMENT AND THEY KEEP TALKING ABOUT A COLD CONTROL I DO NOT SEE THESE TWO ITEMS ON MY SCHMATIC. ALONG WITH EVERYTHING IN FRIG FREEZING EVAPORATOR COIL IS FREEZING OVER AND COMPRESSOR IS ALWAYS RUNNING. IF THESE TWO ITEMS ARE BAD COULD YOU TELL ME WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED.ASKING NOW BECAUSE THEY SAY THE NEXT THING IS TO CHANGE THE MOTHER BOARD. MODAL #MFI2269VEM1 SERIAL # XXXXX THANK YOU RAY

I'm sorry I was just sending some of the tests you can perform to see if theres any faults.its really technical though sorry. these electronic refrigerators are a pain to figure out and even in the tech sheets I cant find the thermistor in the fresh food section , thats strange. I'm still going over tech sheets though. be back in a few minutes, it sounds like you have the correct code in it though.

okay the damper tested good it has to be the thermistor, the thermistor is what tells the damper to open and close. were you able to find the thermistor cover?

BRYAN THE COVER LIKE THIS IS IN THE FREEZER AND I CHANGED THE THERMISTOR THERE. I CAN NOT FIND A COVER LIKE THIS IN THE FRIG. THE ONLY COVER IN THERE IS THE ONE COVERING THE WATER TUBES AND THE WATER FILTER.

okay so thats the only thermistor then. thats why we don't see one inside the refrigerator section. if the damper tests good and the thermistor has been changed the only thing it could be is the control board itself. if the cold control which is part of the electronic keypad didn't show a fault the main control board is causing the issue. I don't know how or why it failed but its not sensing the temps correctly. I'm out of ideas on this one. even the tech sheets don't give us enough info. I would replace it. heres a link to order it. http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-number/W10310240/0046/106 theres nothing else I can see. its not uncommon for these boards to fail.

BRYAN THANKS FOR THE ANSWER AT LEAST I FILL BETTER WITH ANOTHER OPNIONBUT LET ME ASK ONE MORE QUESTION JUST TO MAKE SURE.SINSE THIS PROBLEM STARTED I HAVE NOT HOOKED THE WATER BACK UP TO THE FRIG I LOOKED AT THE DRAWINGS ON LINE AND SEEN THE DAMPER CONTROL IN SIDE THE ICE MAKER DO YOU THINK ITS SENSEING AIR TEMP AND DAMPER STAYING OPEN TO LONG WHICH I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE WATERS HOOKED UP OR NOT WHATS YOUR OPNION IF YOU AGREE THEN I'LL REPLACE THE CONTROL BOARD THANKS FOR YOUR TIME RAY

I'm sorry we are having wicked thunderstorms here in Orlando and my internet keep going off. The water would have nothing to do with the damper opening and closing, the damper is for the whole fresh food section and they just have it at the back of the ice maker to help freeze the ice faster. I cant think of anything else that can cause this issue that we haven't gone over except the Board. thanks and have a great 4th.! Bryan
